Time dotCom (BUY)
Indonesian Venture
- According to Bernama, GTL (TdC’s potential acquiree) has entered into an agreement with PT PGAS Telekominikasi Nusantara to provide competitive and reliable bandwidth connectivity to South-East Asia’s most populous country.
- GTL CEO shared that 10% of Indonesia’s communication demand is equivalent to 70% of Malaysia’s total demand.
- The partnership would bring a total capacity of 160Gbps to Indonesia, capable in meeting the demand for high quality data communication requirements.
- With this partnership, Indonesia will be the new addition to its existing Points of Presence portfolio of Malaysia, Hong Kong and US.
- Comments: We acknowledge this news as a very positive milestone in TdC’s regional expansion plan, by tapping into one of the market with highest growth (over 30%) in the region on the back of low mobile and internet penetration rates of 62.7% and 1.1% respectively.
- Maintain our BUY call with unchanged SOP target price of RM0.85. If DiGi current share price is considered rather than our TP, SOP would be enhanced by 11 sen.
